Wild dog encounters were similar. After reporting that there were 12 wild dog pups, the pack has lost a few, with 9 puppies remaining. One of the pups got killed by a zebra while the pack was moving den sites. A terrible sighting to witness. However they seem to be doing very well & there were regular sightings of the dogs killing & returning to the den to regurgitate their meal for the youngsters to feed on.

Even the lions & buffaloes made a few appearances this month, swimming across the channels in pursuit of greener pastures.

Winter is definitely on the way out & summer temperatures are slowly returning. The cold mornings are become milder & milder. Elephants & hippos dot the riverine Khwai landscape & we at Machaba Camp / Little Machaba Camp look forward on sharing this magical place with our guests.
